1. Day 372 at the Destroyed Nesting Area of the Charles River White Geese.

On August 4, 2009, I conducted Day 372 of the visibilities at the Destroyed Nesting Area of the Charles River White Geese.

We have updated our flier and distributed it in other locations. This was the first distribution at the Destroyed Nesting Area. It was quite a hot day. I was forced to give up because of the heat earlier than I would have like to.

Response, as usual, was quite good. Drivers waved support or pulled over to get fliers. One lady grabbed everything in my hand. I ran after her to get the excess. She asked to keep at least two and, in retrospect, I regret that she may have intended to put them all to good use.

The issues which people who spoke with me were most concerned about were:

a. The heartless abuse aimed directly at the Charles River White Geese, starving them, the forthcoming destruction of three quarters of the tiny area to which they have been sequestered, and I could go on, as I have repeatedly.

b. The ongoing poisoning of Magazine Beach.

c. The soon to come destruction of hundreds of trees on Memorial Drive using Obama moneys.

The last issue has expanded the base of concerned people. Visitors have considered the animal abuse and environmental destruction to be local issues. With Mr. Obama paying for the needless destruction of hundreds of healthy trees, the visitors get interested.

I would be happy to provide electronic masters of the new flier to anybody who wants to distribute them. My printer gets more per page than most printers, however, so it might be necessary to provide hard copies for local reprinting. Contact me at boblat@yahoo.com.

One side of the flier concentrates on Charles River issues and gives contact information for a bunch of bad people including the governor and the president. The other goes into reality in Cambridge in sharp contrast to lies put out by these people that they are pro-environment. We live by the definition of “environmentalism” which reflects reality, in sharp contrast to the Cambridge Pols.

This is a really rotten situation.

2. Heartless Animal Abuser Explains her vote against Zoo Animals.

The local State Representative, Martha Walz is one of the most visible among the heartless animal abusers and destroyers of the Charles River Environment.

She has an op ed posted on the Cambridge Chronicle’s blog explaining her vote against replacing zoo funding vetoed by the environmentally destructive Governor Patrick. Presumably, her comments will be printed in tomorrow’s hard copy.

She got a lot of letters objecting to the anti-animal vote. She "explains," spouting about human needs.

I have responded on line.

The exchange may be read at: http://www.wickedlocal.com/cambridge/news/opinions/x154261939/Guest-commentary-What-zoo-funding-is-really-about.

My response is extensive. It starts with:

*********

I recall a supporter of the heartless animal abuse ongoing on the Charles River getting very indignant about my objection to the heartless animal abuse. She claimed that heartless animal abuse is somehow acceptable from pols in Cambridge because they are so great on civil rights.

The judge in Monteiro called the city reprehensible on civil rights. A lot of people throughout the country have used similar words about Gatesgate.

*********

Needless to say, Walz’s explanation parallels the argument of her fellow heartless animal abusers.

I follow up with details on Walz’s expenditures on destruction. Among other things, I have yet to hear her or her accomplices tell how many times per decade or per century, the fancy drainage system at Magazine Beach will be overwhelmed and their needless poisons flow into the Charles.

I could go on and on. I have repeatedly.

3. Addendum. Full text of response.

On the Charles River, Representative Walz friends at the Department of Conservation and Recreation recently bragged to the Cambridge Conservation Commission that they are getting apparently millions of dollars in Obama money. Why? City and state plans call for the accumulated destruction of more than 449 to 660 healthy trees on the Cambridge side of the Charles River from Magazine Beach to the Longfellow Bridge. Obama is soon to pay for destruction of hundreds of trees along Memorial Drive because those trees do not appear on 19th Century plans for what was then a tidal wetlands.

Walz and Obama include in their destruction, destruction of EVERY cherry tree because cherry trees are not the in tree this week. Even knee jerk supporters of their ongoing outrages have problems with that one, or, at least, one very visible supporter objected to their insistence on destroying the cherry trees at the CCC meeting.

Walzs friends at the DCR are in the process of destroying all life living on or visiting the Charles River below the Watertown Dam.

Half the environmental destruction associated with the BU Bridge repairs is for staging that belongs under Memorial Drive. But this would be highly destructive to the Charles River White Geese, so . . .

The DCR, on an annual basis, poisons every egg of waterfowl it can get away with. The DCR, twice a year, chops down all protective vegetation lining the Charles River and needed for waterfowl migration. There is an exception. That exception is the bizarre wall of vegetation introduced at Magazine Beach in place of wetlands. DCRs key manager has bragged that this bizarre wall of vegetation starves the Charles River White Geese. The DCRs cheerleaders have conducted a swim in bragging that walling off Magazine Beach from the Charles helps swimming in the Charles River.

The DCR and Cambridge, with Walzs cheerleading, are conducting an ongoing an very destructing project at Magazine Beach. Neutral observers could never understand why anybody would want to improve Magazine Beach, and Walzs project proceeds, it is very clear just how bizarre the project is.

These environmentalists are dumping poisons on Magazine Beach to replace the GREEN maintenance that existed there for most of a century.

To keep these totally unneeded poisons from going into the Charles, they are spending a significant amount of money with a fancy drainage system. They could care less about the folly of such a system, and they have not announced the projected times per decade or century that they totally unnecessary poisons will overflow into the Charles anyway.

The drainage system REDUCES the recreational area available at Magazine Beach. It takes up space.

So the system to take off totally unnecessary poisons results in less recreation area than we had in the first place.

And, of course, the poison will poison waterfowl eating there, but the DCR is working to destroy them anyway.

And, of course, the poison will poison humans playing there, but the DCR is doing its best.

I could go on and on.

Walz is most definitely not the only person with very filthy hands destroying the environment in Cambridge.

Walz is making lovely noises about animals and funding concerning animals.

It is fascinating how massive wastes of money which harm animals and harm the environment are acceptable to her.

4. Summary.

Cambridge, MA has really rotten politics made all the more rotten by the holier than thou nonsense the pols dress their outrageous behavior in.
